WUAG Miscellanea[]

  • Jack Bonney is the general manager of the radio station and a faculty member. In addition to Jack's position, the station has six student board members who work in promotions, news, sports, productions, music, and programming. These are paid UNCG student positions filled by active members of the WUAG DJ community who have been DJing for at least a semester. Non-board member DJs are unpaid positions. They volunteer their time because they love the station and its music. The station would not work without those volunteers.
  • Broadcasting and Media Studies students get credit in BCN 190 (freshmen and sophomores) and BCN 490 (juniors and seniors) if they decide to work at the radio station.
  • In the past, interviews with some of the world's most famous people, including a live broadcast with Richard Simmons, have been broadcast on WUAG.
  • Concert updates are given at the :45 of the hour, as well as the event calendar. Public Service Announcements (PSA's) are played on the :30's of the hour.
